Bird-related ecotourism can be a significant source of additional income for local economies, and can incentivize communities to sustain conservation efforts. This series of training resources was designed to support communities in developing sustainable ecotourism initiatives to generate socio-economic and conservation benefits through activities such as birdwatching, habitat conservation and celebratory events. The brochures are […]

The guide on completing non-detriment findings (NDFs) for exports of wood from CITES-listed tree species in Mexico provides key and relevant information for anyone involved or interested in environmental management and conservation, particularly those working on the management schemes and the process of conducting NDFs for trees artificially propagated, produced under natural conditions, or harvested from small-scale production on non-forestry lands.
Pollinators are crucial to the functioning of natural ecosystems, human well-being and food security. Globally, an estimated 87 percent of plant species depend on animals for pollination, including 75 percent of crop species. This State of Knowledge, intended for scientists, conservation practitioners and government agencies, offers a summary of the current understanding of pollinator conservation, […]
This edition of Taking Stock brings together data and information on the pollutants reported between 2014 and 2018 by North American industrial facilities to the pollutant release and transfer registers (PRTRs) of the region: Canada’s National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI), Mexico’s Registro de Emisiones y Transferencia de Contaminantes (RETC), and the US Toxics Release Inventory (TRI). The objectives of this publication are to improve the awareness and understanding of the sources, types, and handling of industrial pollutants in North America and support decisions relative to pollution prevention and sustainability.
This document guides MPA practitioners through a basic climate adaptation planning process using the Climate Adaptation Toolkit. The Climate Adaptation Toolkit contains tools to help MPA practitioners evaluate the vulnerability of their sites to climate change and identify appropriate adaptation strategies. The Training Module provides a framework and training exercises to support the successful use […]
The Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC) recognized information gaps in estimating economic impacts of floods in Canada, Mexico, and the United States. It initiated in 2019 a collaborative research project, led by experts from the three countries. During 2019-2021, this project entitled “Costing Floods and Other Extreme Events” has brought together governmental agencies, academic institutions, […]
Assessing the true economic costs of floods is central to our ability to address their impacts, allocate adequate resources for monitoring and preparedness, assess their changes in frequency and severity over time, and aid community resilience to them. Considerable variability exists in Canada, Mexico, and the United States in the choice and implementation of methods used at national and sub-national levels for estimating direct damages and indirect losses caused by floods.
This document summarizes a proposal developed by Anáhuac University to create the Social Innovation Hub Anáhuac—Mexico (SIHA). Becoming a member of the EcoInnovation Network and exchanging ideas with its members, including the Tom Love Innovation Hub of Oklahoma University, provided useful information to Anáhuac University for developing this proposal.
